Frater Cornelius Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Most definitely, if you consider that almost every AAA movie has to have at least one sex scene or obligatory skin showinylg, sometimes even pointless boob shots and the merciless sexualization in media these days. However, they never openly admit that they are so liberal about it.

Kilofix Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 But what if Cegorach IS really Slaanesh?! O.o Cegorach / Slaanesh has Lady Malys open Khaines Gate and has the Harlequins give Ahriman access to the Black Library before sending them on an impossible task to suicide them. Daemons flood into Commorragh and the Webway. Ahriman, in an attempt to restore his Rubrics, accidentally triggers a catastrophic event (as did his predecessor) that opens the Terra Webway. Daemons flood into Realspace and eat the Emperor. Just as planned says Tzeentch.

King Jackal Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 If Slaanesh is killed off will another god be established I wonder... And if so, what will the god be a manifestation of?

Bjorn Firewalker Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 If Slaanesh dies, I think Ahriman will be most qualified to replace him/her/it. Khorne may be desperate enough to prevent Tzeentch upsetting the balance of power (Ahriman is nominally Tzeentch's follower, after all), that he'll fight to PROTECT his own worst enemy, to prevent another enemy from becoming powerful enough to crush them both. That, or Malice's power will increase as Slaanesh's followers lose faith- maybe even turning to him for answers- allowing him to face Khorne, Tzeentch, and Nurgle as equals.

Tenebris Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I doubt that Slaanesh will be killed or scraped from the current timeline. My argument is that he has an iconic legion of marines, he has a close tie with the eldar which are perhaps the most influential xenos in the setting and the third thing is that he has been a fixture from day one of Warhammer unlike Malice or Malal. One might say that Slaanesh is not good for the current market due to the young age of those who approach to Warhammer for the first time but there is no need to follow a sex theme (though Diaz daemonettes are still the most priced models ever released just for showing some skin and boobs) because it can be focused on sound, excess, rock&roll... you name it. A revision of the thematic guitar weapons and neon iconography symbolic of Slaanesh could be a big deal. I agree rumors are not putting Slaanesh in a good way, even the End Times had a snippet here and there of him/her, but same can be said for Tzeentch... I say lets all be patient and see what will happen. As for the events which could follow such a fall of a Chaos God, well they would be dire. Many eldar would die, their souls promised to the Dark Prince a long ago, the Emperor's Children would be bullied into submission, their power vacant, most importantly than all the Eye of Terror would begin to recede as it was made by the birth of Slaanesh... Nah, not going to happen... I hope...

Noctem Cultor Posted March 17, 2015 Author Share Posted March 17, 2015 Maybe a reboot is in a process for the whole range. Cult Marines rumours but only god not represented is Slaanesh. Guitar hero/ Tron remake please thanks. or maybe a Shattered god with the perfection image cracked showing something more sinister underneath.

Sheesh Mode Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Stop reading Spikey Bitz click bait articles. If Slaanesh were killed off an entire faction in 40k would be less grimdark. A full fourth of chaos would disappear. An entire traitor legion, its primarch, and the named characters would die. (Including pimp daddy Bill) A chaos god that embodies all of Western Culture's fear of sex would be gone, and with it the attraction for older members. No, this would be awful.
